If we think of Jacqueline Bisset, we would like to call her a generational star. For 58 years of her career, she has achieved incredible popularity. The 80-year-old starred in 50 films and even now is not going to say goodbye to her career.
Young years
She got into the modelling business, being very young. Well, and then the path to cinema began. Jacqueline Bisset and now many people associate with Hollywood glamour, which was peculiar to the actors of that time. In her perfectly combined beautiful appearance and sexuality, which did not leave the audience indifferent. In addition, Jacqueline always looked natural and was not very fond of make-up. She grew up in a creative family, so from childhood she was engaged in dancing and was interested in acting. Since from an early age Bisset loved to perform on stage, she was serious about building a career in entertainment.
Filmography
Her green eyes, expressive cheekbones and eccentric appearance fell in love with the audience, so the directors poured Jacqueline lucrative offers. In addition, she was able to play completely different characters and quickly got into different roles. This and comedy parodies (‘Casino Royale’), and dramas (‘Sleepy Gal’), and historical films (the role of Anna Karenina). Her first debut was in the film ‘Dead End’, and the famous actress became famous two years later, because she starred in two famous films at once “Detective” and ‘Bullitt’. Soon for ‘Sweet Ride’ Jacqueline received her first ‘Golden Globe’. On her account many famous works: ‘Emmy’, ‘Birds of Paradise’, ‘Wild Orchid’, etc.
Personal life
The actress was multilingual and communicated in three languages: Italian, French and English. She was awarded the Legion of Honour for her successes and two years ago received an award from the Sedona International Film Festival. Despite her schedule, work and constant travelling, she is doing fine on the personal front. She was courted by Frank Sinatra himself, and there were rumours that Jacqueline was having an affair with Steve McQueen. But the actress denied these rumours and said that she and her colleague were too different to love each other.
Dating Steve McQueen
Jacqueline confessed to journalists that Steve had always been sympathetic to her, but a bit repulsed by something. He was a cool American, so his manner of behaviour was appropriate. When Bisset heard from him the word ‘dude’ or ‘chick’, did not understand what it was about. The actress herself was in a relationship with Michael Sarrazin. She was also attributed to her romance with Vincent Perez and Alexander Godunov. But Jacqueline too valued her freedom, so was in no hurry to build a permanent and stable relationship. In her life there were many interesting and difficult men, because she did not choose easy – you can get bored with them. She put a point in time, if she noticed bad habits in a man after a long period of communication. People turn a blind eye to this and marry such flaws, but she could not. Bisset believes that it is better to break up in time than to experience anger, aggression and have a bad relationship. If the situation is overwhelming, one should leave.
By the way, Jacqueline is Jolie’s godmother. Her lifestyle was modest and secretive, which is why the actress’ name never hit the headlines of the yellow press. She was in the trend and an idol of millions, but never dared to do stupid things for the sake of fame.
And how is her life now?
And no matter how old she is, the actress is not thinking of saying goodbye to her fans completely. She is infinitely grateful to everyone who supports her and tries not to lose her brand. In recent years, Jacqueline starred in ‘The Tenant’, ‘Lauren and Rose’, as well as other films. By the way, she often gets oddball and not reliable characters, but in life Bisset is completely different. Her transformation in the films is very organic, so it is perceived by the audience as reality. In addition, everyone notes the unfading beauty of Jacqueline. She says that her secret is that she does not hold a grudge for a long time and forgives everyone who acted badly towards her.
Bisset admitted to journalists that in her youth she had an incredible number of complexes related to appearance and figure, but she did not dare to have plastic surgery. She believes that such manipulations do not rejuvenate and do not improve a person, but simply make him different. With such a woman you want to take an example, because despite the incredible popularity, she remains simple, kind and down-to-earth.
